PM broken.

Dead database error page, just on PM.

Control panel too.

Yep. PMs are offline. Here's the error I saw -

Database error in vBulletin 3.6.4:

Invalid SQL:

SELECT pm.*, pmtext.*

FROM pm AS pm
LEFT JOIN pmtext AS pmtext ON(pmtext.pmtextid = pm.pmtextid)
LEFT JOIN icon AS icon ON(icon.iconid = pmtext.iconid)
WHERE pm.userid=17 AND pm.folderid=0
ORDER BY pmtext.dateline DESC
LIMIT 0, 50;

Nick, O2C, one of you guys mucking about with SQL? Move or rename a file?

Ironically, PMing them would get their attention faster, but....

So how the hell did you break it Diacanu? It worked till you said something.

Nope, I've been at work all day. I'll have to give our hosts a jingle and see what's up, I can't even login to the server.

Getting problems with uploading avatars, too.

URL option gave: "Upload failed due to failure writing temporary file."
Local option gave: "Upload of file failed."

Hmm, mine still gets "database unreachable".

Alright, I can take a hint, fellas, you ain't gotta break the whole board to drive me off, geez.

Working now. Thank you, to whoever fixed it.

Yep, fixed.

Broke again, apparently. I can't get into mine.

It sez 'the wordforge database has encountered a problem.'

Has to happen on the one day in a month of sundays when someone sends me a PM.

I've got it too. I apparently have a PM sitting in the box that is unreachable. The thought of someone wanting to chat with me is incredible, so this is killing me.

Go into your control panel. Any incoming PM's should be listed at the top.

At least until this is fixed...

This morning, it's broken again. Can't get into PM's or Control Panel.

I going to assume for no reason that this is a well coordinated joint-Troll Kingdom/Trek BBS attack and that their two armies are charging before them while T'Bonz and Missmanners are traveling in the rear, making out on a floating chariot that holds a king-size bed.

It's glorious.

Like the rest of the world, service is going to hell around here...

As usual, it's not us. Another BBS on our server is doing something and it's effecting us. Nick and O2C have been in contact with our host and they thought the problem was resolved.

^ Well, make them stop. I have a new PM in my Inbox and I can't read it.

Okay, but I'll need 12 good men, horses, guns, provisions, 36'-10-7/16" of 3/8th inch chain, four alcohol swabs, a corn cob, three rolls of duct tape, a trolling motor's propeller, and a whoopee cushion.

Give me a few days. I'm still waiting for my holster and cartridge belt to arrive by pony express.

I can provide all of that save the horses and the propeller.

Same here.

Can we get an approximate ETA on fixing this thing?

Me either, but the control panel thing worked. I was able to get my messages.

It's back!

What's the whoopee cushion for?

The awesome defense of Wordforge have beaten back the TK/T BBS hordes. I shall write a fantasy metal song detailing this momentous victory.

Whoopee cushions are covered under the wrodforge don't ask, don't tell policy.
